Malware Classification

Malware Classification is the process of assigning a malware sample to a specific malware family. Malware within a family shares similar properties that can be used to create signatures for detection and classification. Signatures can be categorized as static or dynamic based on how they are extracted. A static signature can be based on a byte-code sequence, binary assembly instruction, or an imported Dynamic Link Library (DLL). Dynamic signatures can be based on file system activities, terminal commands, network communications, or function and system call sequences.
